Finally…putting up the Christmas Tree

December 12, 2011

By now…my house is usually decked all out with Christmas cheer. Not really feeling it right now. By this time, usually, The Charlie Brown Christmas CD has been played about 4.5 million times. I just turned it on for the first time today as the tree was going up. Today the girl’s and my husband put the {Charlie Brown} tree up and decorated it. They saved me 3 ornaments to put on the tree…a beagle, a mini pair of flip flops and last year’s Twilight ornament. Do my girl’s know me or what?

I’ve been slipping furniture and I’m booked ’til January…so I can enjoy some Christmas cheer…or provide some without being a psycho maniac. I haven’t done one shred of Christmas shopping at this point and I’m not doing Christmas cards this year. Man, I sound like scroogette!

I just read Emily’s post and it immediately calmed my heart down. Go read it now. I want to appreciate the making of cookies and having the girl’s home over the holidays…a simple Christmas. What about you?
